A year ago today I started playing Bandori. The only reason I started playing was because of a friend at the time. I never expected that I'd still be playing a whole year later. When I started Bandori my favorite band was Hello! Happy World! And now I feel I've completely shifted in a way. My favorite band is Afterglow now, the whole childhood friend thing just makes their bond even more special to me. My best girl last year was Aya-Chan, followed by Eve-San and Kokoron. Now my best girls are Himari-Chan, Rinko-Chan, and Hagumi-San. When I joined bandori I sucked ass (as I'm sure we all did lmao). And I don't think I ever expected that I'd be able to play any expert difficulty songs. I was only there so that I could become closer to the friend that introduced me to Bandori because compared to the other 3-4 people in our friend group we weren't close and I just wanted to bond over something. When I started playing I only had one 4star. Which was new years Aya-chan. I thought I'd only be with that one card forever but as it stands now I own 26 4stars. A lot has changed since I started. With my mental state especially. Bandori has helped me out of some of the darkest times in my life so far. It's helped me through bullying and emotional issues I've been really struggling with. When I started playing bandori I was level 3. Like everyone else is when they start. Now I'm level 143(I have to update my level-). Bandori is such a big part of my life and it's inspired me so much. When I started I didn't care much for music but Bandori has inspired me to play instruments. Even if I get judged for liking Bandori I truly don't care. It's a game I want to play forever. Who cares if I treat the Bandori girls like best friends? I feel like I've been through so much with them that they are friends. If you don't like it than that's okay. I'm rambling aren't I? Ahah, sorry. But I'm grateful for what Bandori has done for me. I'm grateful for the seiyuu's. The artists. The true talents in Bandori. Thank you for a wonderful year, Bandori. I'm hoping for another wonderful year this year. Because I know that even if 2021 may suck at points Bandori will have my back as my escape from reality. I feel I truly am myself when I play Bandori. I'm so glad I was introduced to Bandori. Thank you, friend.
